Liquidation Procedures

In accordance with the Liquidation of Accounts and Payment of Deficit Balances section of your Commodity Customer Agreement with GAIN Capital, GAIN Capital reserves the right to liquidate any commodity positions in your account at its SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION without prior notice. Clients are responsible for monitoring their positions and are financially responsible for any losses generated by open positions.

In such instances, your account may be locked, open positions may be liquidated, and if our risk management staff liquidates your position due to inaction on your part, a liquidation fee will apply. GAIN Capital’s current liquidation fee is $50.00 per contract.
